Install to the correct folder first!, Seems to be a recurring problem... Options

[Cheeseh]

I've noticed many asking on the forum/e-mail about the bot not working, due to the fact that it hasn't been installed to the correct folder.

Let's get this straight!

If you don't have the rcbot.dll file in Half-Life/rcbot/dlls , then it isn't installed correctly. You haven't extracted the zip to the right place. Extract it ON the half-Life folder, NOT the mod folder, so that it creates a folder in Half-Life called "rcbot".

All bot files should be in the Half-Life/rcbot folder. (NOT Half-Life/<MOD-DIR>/rcbot, I repeat NOT!)

that's:

steam : c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<email>\half-life\rcbot
won : <drive>:\<half-life folder>\rcbot

Well, can you tell me where to put all the files that you need to download please? I don't know much about Steam, so I barely know any information on how to do this. And what is a NS Server or whatever it is. I know thats a noob question, but I am a noob to all that.

Hi,
i've followed the istructions about installing the mod manually 'cause i'm not running Steam. I placed "rcbot" folder into the directory of Half Life 2 Deathmatch but from the console of the game it doesn't find rcbot addbot or addbot... this is the content of my "liblist.gam" file:

CODE

// Valve Game Info file
//  These are key/value pairs.  Certain mods will use different settings.
//
game "Half-Life 2"
startmap "Hyper_001"
trainingmap "t0a0"
hlversion "1000"
mpentity "info_player_deathmatch"

What can i do to solve this problem? Help me please!

Thanks in advance,

Bye
hawake

you need to add the line

gamedll "../rcbot/dlls/rcbot.dll"

and after saving the file, right click on it and select "read only" then ok

[PHILoMIC]

it doesnt work still

oh and is all ur suppose to do is add an extra line to that limbist and u can play cause thats all it says on rcbot




the files in halflife rcbot ddl is just a readme file that says---

All Rcbot's DLL files go in this folder.

rcbot.dll
rcbot_i486.so
rcbot_mm.dll
rcbot_mm_i486.so


oh and yes i did extract it to half-life not the mods or anyother place....
